Partnership on fire

Regional specialist Exeter Glass Centre has teamed up with Pilkington to become the local stockist in the south west of the company’s range of fire-resistant glass products.

Exeter Glass Centre is part of independent, local and family-owned business Cornwall Glass & Glazing which has branches located throughout Cornwall, Devon, Somerset and Wiltshire with growing links throughout the region. It employs over 150 staff at 13 glass handling, supply and processing sites, specialising in local service and commitment to communities in the area.

Steven Michell, public relations manager for Exeter Glass Centre, said: “We are very proud to be the only company stocking and supplying Pilkington’s well respected range of fire-resistant glass products. This is an exciting new development, which will deliver efficient and reliable fire-resistant glazing solutions to customers of the south west. We have a major commitment to our region and we want to make available the very best of world-beating glass products that are now available. The Pilkington range of fire-resistant glass undoubtedly fulfils that criterion, and comes as well with the highest standards of technical support and advice on applications and fire safety requirements.

“This is a perfect blend of our own particular style of local service, second to none for our communities in the south west, and Pilkington’s distinctive brand of technical know-how and product quality. The ongoing development of the Cornwall Glass Group is a regional success story and we want to make sure that we continue that growth. To do that, we intend to add to our range and capabilities. This development certainly does that.”
